The windshield wiper motor on the 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan is located on the firewall and under the cowl, and it can malfunction at the most inopportune times. Should the windshield wiper motor fail, it should be replaced immediately. Because it is a part that rarely breaks, you might not be able to find it at an auto parts store, unless the store special-orders the part. If the store has to order the part, compare the price with the dealership.

SOURCE: Windshield Wiper Arm
Pull up on the wiper arm, you will see a tiny little blade on the side of the wiper arm where it goes over the post, take a little screwdriver and pry that out board, this will release the arm from the post, it will be tight, wiggle the arm and pull straight out away from the post.
You posting is slightly confusing but I gather your windshield wipers stopped working.
The repair method is as follows;
) Check the fuse.
) Check the wiper motor. Turn the wipers on and listen for the hum of the motor.
If you hear the hum then the linkage has probably come loose. You will have to take the covers off
to get to the linkage for the wiper. You can either repair the parts, get salvage yard parts or replace with new part$.
If you do not hear the motor hum then you should verify electricity is getting to the motor. A simple
voltmeter can be used. If the motor is bad you can replace it. Call some auto supply stores for after-market motors or call salvage yards for parts.
